On Tuesday, we chatted live on Twitter with London-based startup Poq Studios about what’s going on in the mobile fashion space.
Here’s a recap of what was discussed
According to Poq Studios, 64% of smartphone owners use their mobile devices to shop online. And smartphones are now able to support what consumers [...]
The 2011 Emmy-wining mini-series “Mildred Pierce” is based on both the 1941 novel and 1945 Oscar winning film starring Joan Crawford. The story is of a separated mother of two, payed by Kate Winslet, who opens a successful restaurant while falling in love again and dealing with her terribly spoiled daughter, played by [...]
“Legally Blonde” is a 2001 romantic comedy and surprisingly inspiring chick flick all in one. It stars one of my favorite actresses, Reese Witherspoon, as blonde bombshell Elle Woods. Elle went from being a Delta Gamma sorority president and fashion merchandising major at a school in California to a Harvard Law student. A [...]

The 1965 film “The Sound of Music”, starring Julie Andrews, is a classic story of love, hope and bravery. The musical film is a period piece, based in the 1940’s. The story follows the lives of the Von Trapp family and their new governess, Maria (played by Andrews) during the beginning of the [...]
Ne-Yo’s artistry can be described by using one word: smooth.
His hits, including “Champagne Life” and “One in a Million” showcase him as a triple threat with his voice, dance moves and personal style. He’s not shy to rock suspenders one day and some fly sneakers the next, but always stays true to his [...]
Boston is having a fashion revolution. Do not adjust your computer screen, you read that correctly.

This fashion revolution kicked off Wednesday night as Ministry of Supply opened their sleek [...]
